Anyone else a bit worried about this? I know I shouldn't be but a tiny part of me is worried.

This is why we don't need beet.

Haha wtf, does the pasty rapist even claim to be a "journalist"? What a bizarre argument.

He's an anarchist with a messiah complex that has been trapped in a couple of rooms for the last how many years?

He's now the puppet of the Russian hackers, who he enables to ensure his continued "relevance"

If Assange has something tangible, and if he wants to torpedo Clinton, logic dictates that he releases it just before the second debate.

At this point, with Trump hemorrhaging "bigly", it would have to be something yooge.

I don't see why. Nothing else they've released has had ANY real impact.

If Assange (for example) had emails showing that Clinton helped a major donor to the Clinton Foundation gain legislative or policy advantages with the government, that would be "yooge". Let's not forget that less than two weeks ago everyone on Atlas was panicking about a Trump win. If there were serious allegations against Clinton and Trump "sobered up", we'd have a race again. At this point both look highly unlikely, but you never know.

Not unreasonable, other than considering Atlas panic as reflective of anything.

Even if it's not true - only Assange would think her saying something nasty about him is a game-changer lol.

Its being reported that Hillary Clinton enquired about assassinating a journalist who was leaking things she didn't want leaked



but of course that's completely different from anything Putin might do to journalists and its Trump not Clinton who is the threat to journalistic freedom.

And how about the journalists who published Trump's leaked Tax returns. What should be their punishment. After all publishing leaked documents doesn't fall under the definition of 'journalism' according to some people here.

Or is the real difference that you consider media outlets that you agree with ideologically (e.g. NYT, WaPo etc) to be 'proper journalism' whereas those you don't agree with ideologically (e.g. Wikileaks, Breitbart) you think are not proper journalism and shouldn't be covered by freedom of the press.

In other words you want freedom of the press for media outlets that agree with you. Funnily enough Putin wants the same thing in Russia.

Its a joke.

No, it's serious, because someone described her as terse.

Also, im 90% sure someone just made this up.

I also wouldn't put it past Assange to release BS just because it directly referenced him.

Seems a very Trump-like stunt.
